Hi,
Good work!
I just switched to this branch and configured OE-core to compile for
qemuarm using the external CSL 2011.03 toolchain. When attempting to
build the sato image bitbake aborts when compiling libproxy_0.4.7.bb.
I've changed the cmake.bbclass to have cmake find the binaries of the
external toolchain as posted here:
http://lists.linuxtogo.org/pipermail/openembedded-core/2011-December/014432.html
With this patch applied the build of the core-image-sate and
qt4e-demo-image finished successfully. Both images are booting fine
using QEMU.
Regards,
Ken

Merged to master. Thanks for these, good to see those recipes fulfilling
their full potential :)

Thanks for reporting that. I've merged the patch you refer to above.
